After reviewing the Forbes billionaires rating, you definitely couldn’t miss how many Russian oligarchs are in this rating. Indeed, after three or five difficult years, Russian billionaires began to grow rich again. Over the year, their total capital increased by one hundred billion dollars.
For the richest people in our country, the crisis seems to have really ended. What are the reasons for this "take-off" - is unknown. Silent analysts, the state is silent. But, as they say: "there is no money, but you stay there."
